just out of curiosity, whats the knack to fitting dual bike engines; how theyre syncronised and how you get them to run the same prop?

A transfere box like this may work.... this needs a higher torque rating tho

Was talking to a chap (car twin 'busa engines) at Brighton Speed Trials.

Engines chain to common shaft, then chain to final drive. What about synchronising etc. Simple he said.

You haven't got to synchronise gears and with hydraulic clutch (with single pedal pipe splitting in two for slaves). Therefore only thing to sych is throttle. Start at tickover, and work your way up.

Easy I said
